Worldviews Network logic model, version 2

Logic model, version 2

This is the web version of the logic model (PDF, one page, 31 KB), for screen readers and small screens. The diagram's boxes are given as lists, and its arrows as sentences.

The diagram draws a loop of four boxes, connected by arrows. The boxes have no titles of their own, so the headings for them below are added here. The text under the loop has its own headings.

Motivation

Coupled Human-Natural System Boundary Conditions

Participants

  • Host ISE
  • Production Team
  • Community Organizations

What the participants bring

This text labels the arrow from the participants to the programs.

  • Technology, visualizations
  • Pedagogy: presentation about Earth
  • Content Knowledge: social-ecological ecological systems
  • Funding

Programs

  • Immersive Visualization
  • Bioregional Community Dialogue

Audiences: see, know, do

ISI/Planetarium Professionals

  • See impacts of human decisions
  • Know local issues and contacts
  • Do more programming

Advisors

  • See ISI as important community resource
  • Know ISI institutional capacity
  • Do future social-ecological engagements

Influential Public

  • See: Awe, inspiration, amazement
  • Know: Social-ecological literacy
  • Do: Identify proactive opportunities

Benefits to participants

All participants enhance their own stature and effectiveness

  • Host ISE increases stature, brings in more members and revenue
  • Production Team Augments ISE core programming
  • Community Organizations gain new members and collaborators

How the parts connect

The motivation sits to the left of the participants' box, with no arrow to or from it.

An arrow runs from the participants (Host ISE, Production Team, Community Organizations) to the programs (Immersive Visualization, Bioregional Community Dialogue). It is labelled with what the participants bring: technology and visualizations, pedagogy, content knowledge, and funding.

An arrow runs from the programs to the three audiences: ISI/Planetarium Professionals, Advisors and Influential Public.

An arrow runs from the audiences to the box headed "All participants enhance their own stature and effectiveness".

An arrow runs from that box back to the participants' box, which closes the loop.

The long-term changes below are plain text under the loop, with no arrows.

Long-term changes

Over time, Worldviews Network seeks to contribute to large-scale changes in how individuals and society deal with environmental challenges, and in how Planetariums / ISIs take a central role in facilitating that new landscape.

Planetarium Field

  • Earth-focused programming becomes a mainstay of public programming and mission
  • Local, place-based, Earth-systems issues become guiding principle for storytelling
  • Commit to self-sustained ongoing, community engagement
  • ISIs are viewed as a core trusted “place to go” for multi-disciplinary dialogue about social-ecological issues and solutions

Individuals

  • Increase capacity for and comfort with complex thinking
  • Expand worldviews to be grounded in understanding of coupled human-natural systems

Society

  • Uses ongoing, cross-disciplinary collaboration in service of addressing socio-ecological problems from a systems perspective.
  • Fosters a spirit of opportunity and engagement around social-ecological challenges
  • Identifies new indicators for value in society (i.e., not solely production/consumption GNP)
